And could lemmy be used as a private forum were only registered users and whitelisted users can view, post and comment on the instance. This way you can have a private instance which only paid users of your group or club can join like many membership website forums have.

Is there a library or command for registering an account on lemmy which can be used to register an account on an private instance? Lets say you payed to be in tier 2 of a group and tier 2 allows for a account on their private lemmy instance. Can it be setup so only paid users in tier 2 can have a lemmy account?

I believe you'd have to manually edit the database for that. @nutomic@lemmy.ml?

Also through the API, just block the register endpoint so users cant register themselves. And you'd have to block registration over websocket, not sure how that works.
